ContainersConsider the container
It is required to design a box which satisfies the following requirements:-
a) The box is to hold 2000cm3 (2 litres)
b) The length of the box is to be two times the
breadth of the box.
c) The amount of cardboard needed to make the
box is to be a minimum.

You can see from the table that the minimum is somewhere between x = 8 and x = 10.
So we now form another table with x going up in steps of 0.2 say.
On your calculator set TblStart to 8 and ∆Tbl to 0.2 and then complete the Table 2 on the next slide.

Make up a third table starting at ? and going up in steps of 0.1 to obtain the final value for x which will give the minimum area of cardboard.
Now that you have this value of x, draw a box like the one below and mark on the box the dimensions which the box would have for this minimum area.

Note
A company using this box for packaging goods, would produce millions of these boxes and the cost of producing them would be a minimum because each box uses the smallest amount of cardboard and satisfies the other conditions stated initially in the problem.

Container Examples(Using the graphic calculator Table function)
1. The container is to hold a volume of 800cm3.
The length is to be five times the breadth.
The area of cardboard needed to make the container is to be a minimum.
Find x, then draw the container.
